Lyrics
Iโm from Doncaster
This is my city.....my club.....my one true love,
This is my home,
On the terrace of red,
I never feel alone
Im from Doncaster.
I walk done Bawtry road,
To where they built a new housing estate,
Built upon a theatre, a theatre of dreams.
My old man used to work the turnstiles,
And he let me jump the gate,
Standing in the corner of the main stand,
Getting drenched if it ever chucked it down.
I remember luke warm bovril,
Microwave pukka pies,
They say it never leaves you,
It never leaves your side.
See when it was a town,
There wasnโt much going on,
Just people asking for money,
Only things going were or the races or the footy.
It used to be the same things,
Every Saturday at 3,
Watching us week after week,
Defeat after defeat.
I could have hung around,
Having fun in the frenchgate,
With a mate or two,
Instead I spent my time at my home called Belle Vue
At my home called Belle Vue
Iโm from Doncaster
This is my city.....my club.....my one true love,
This is my home,
On the terrace of red,
I never feel alone
Im from Doncaster.
I remember them ripping down the pop stand,
When we moved down the road.
Never thought Iโd see my church made in to homes.
I knew things would change for worse or better,
โWhy you getting upset?,
Its just blokes kicking a ball of leatherโ
But what do they know,
They donโt know how it feels.
Three nil up against the villa,
And it feels like a dream.
As you drive into the city
The minister fills the skyline,
Flag flapping
The sound of cop cars,
Blue lights flashing
Feels like the disco
On the bridge going out of town.
This is my city
This is my club
Iโm from Doncaster
Iโm from Doncaster
This is my city.....my club.....my one true love,
This is my home,
On the terrace of red,
I never feel alone
Im from Doncaster.
Iโm from Doncaster
I never feel alone,
I never feel alone.
This is my home,
On the terrace of red,
I never feel alone.
